All good if the breeze pressure is consistent. If you’re on the right side of the course and the wind shifts to the left, technically you just got an advantage on the ladder rung vs a boat on the left side. But if the wind is filling in from the left with the shift the boat on the lower rung gets the pressure first and will be well ahead by the time it gets to the boat on the right.
@@SailZing Love your videos and have recommended them many times. Do you have any videos on reading wind and tactics? Ex how wind behaves around an island, under clouds, etc.

You are on the lifted tack when you can sail higher than the previous (or median in oscillating breeze) wind direction. Imagine you are sailing on starboard tack and the wind shifts right. You are now lifted. The opposite is called headed tack.
Must be simple, yet mindblowing

I don’t get it
Lifted tack - What does that mean?
